Metabolic Neurophilosophy: Linking Brain Function with Body Metabolism.

This special issue of Biochemistry (Moscow) "Interaction between Neural Signals and Metabolic Pathways: Role in the Functioning of a Healthy and Diseased Brain", includes studies on the mechanisms of close functional connections between the brain and other organs and tissues of the body. These mechanisms link brain metabolism with its signaling function under normal and pathological conditions. The metabolic signals that enable these connections are the focus of research in this field, which is crucial for an integrated understanding of how the body functions. An impairment in metabolic signal…

Проверка результатов анализа ПЦР в режиме реального времени для выявления и количественной оценки вирусных геномов нечеловеческой приматовой крови.

В 1980 году болезнь оспы была ликвидирована в природе, а вирус Вариолы, этиологический агент оспы, был ограничен двумя лабораториями: одна из них, расположенная в России (Москва), позднее переехала в VECTOR (Новосибирск, Сибирь) и одна в США (CDC Atlanta). Вскоре после успешного проведения кампании по искоренению этого заболевания вакцинация населения в целом прекратилась, что привело к тому, что население становится все более восприимчивым к иммунологии. В связи с возможностью преднамеренного восстановления вируса Вариолы и появлением других патогенных оксивирусов существует острая необходимо

Hypospadias in a male (78,XY; SRY-positive) dog and sex reversal female (78,XX; SRY-negative) dogs: clinical, histological and genetic studies.

Hypospadias is rarely reported in dogs. In this study we pre-sent 2 novel cases of this disorder of sexual development and, in addition, a case of hereditary sex reversal in a female with an enlarged clitoris. The first case was a male Moscow watchdog with a normal karyotype (78,XY) and the presence of the SRY gene. In this dog, perineal hypospadias, bilateral inguinal cryptorchidism and testes were observed. The second case, representing the Cocker spaniel breed, had a small penis with a hypospadic orifice of the urethra, bilateral cryptorchidism, testis and a rudimentary gonad inside an ovar…

Transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) is the method used in cases of benign tumors at the early stages of rectal cancer. The tumor localization in peritonized part of the rectum indicates a limiting level for removal of the neoplasm. TEM was performed on 137 patients. The mean age was 63.8 ± 9.8 years and the number of women consisted of 65.7%. Neoplasms were located in the upper ampullar rectum and a potential possibility of connection with the peritoneal cavity was noted in 12 (8.7%) patients, but during TEM it was only in 5 cases. There wasn't any conversion to a peritoneal surgery. The w
